I couldn't disagree more. It's been a week and a half since Beta, and in that time, I've bought maybe 7 or 8 packs. Not counting my starting Gold card, I have pulled exactly 1 Gold, 0 Diamonds, and 0 Perfects. That one Gold (Patrick Corbin ftw) was placed on my roster, not sold.

And yet, before this most recent season, I was able to buy Severino in the AH and still have PP to spare. He's not the best of the best, obviously (he's not even best of his class), but he is a good, solid, Diamond card that I was able to outright buy with the PP I earned over just a week and a half of play, without spending a dime.

I don't think I got overly lucky, either. My starting Gold was Johnny Bench, who did well for me but not spectacular. I was definitely lucky to have an amazing season from Johnny Mize (also a starting pull), who earned Batting Champion in my league, but beyond that, almost all of the top performers on my team were Bronzes, Silvers, or low Golds that I targeted in the AH. And I wound up the "whale" in my division (104 wins).
